This THORENS Gen-3 Single Claw lighter is a refillable fluid lighter featuring a solid brass body, an automatic press-button ignition system with a twist safety lock, and a three-dimensional diamond-grid surface, designed for users who value classic mechanical control, tactile metal finishes, and long-term collectibility.

The Single Claw name refers to a traditional THORENS mechanical lineage centered on automatic ignition through internal linkage rather than manual spark striking. In this Gen-3 execution, the lighter employs an automatic press-button ignition system secured by a twist-style safety lock, preserving the deliberate ritual of vintage fluid lighters while improving operational consistency. The embossed diamond-grid texture enhances grip and amplifies light interaction across the polished brass surface, emphasizing material presence over visual excess.

Key construction details:
– Refillable fluid system using lighter fluid (kerosene)
– Automatic press-button ignition with integrated twist safety lock
– Solid brass body with high-polish silver finish
– Three-dimensional geometric diamond-grid embossed surface
– Front-inlaid THORENS Swiss brand emblem creating dynamic light reflection

This lighter is ideal for:
– Collectors seeking authentic THORENS automatic mechanical lighters
– Users who prefer automatic ignition without modern butane systems
– Everyday carry users who favor refillable, long-lasting fluid lighters with defined metal texture

It may not be ideal if:
– You prefer jet-flame or butane torch lighters
– You want a lighter with no mechanical interaction or maintenance

Proper care helps maintain consistent automatic ignition performance and preserves surface definition over time.
